City in the Sky. Glanz, James. Times Books. Hardcover. City in the Sky. More than a year after the nation began mourning the lives lost in the attacks on the World Trade Center, it became clear that something else was being mourned: the towers themselves. They were the biggest and brashest icons that New York, and possibly America, has ever produced - magnificent giants that became intimately familiar around the globe. Their builders were possessed of a singular determination to create wonders of capitalism as well as engineering, refusing to admit defeat before natural forces, economics, or politics. No one knows the history of the towers better than New York Times reporters James Glanz and Eric Lipton. In a vivid, brilliantly researched narrative, the authors re-create David Rockefeller´s ambition to rebuild lower Manhattan, the spirited opposition of local storeowners and powerful politicians, the bold structural innovations that later determined who lived and died, master builder Guy Tozzoli´s last desperate view of the towers on September 11, and the charged and chaotic recovery that could have unraveled the secrets of the buildings´ collapse but instead has left some enduring mysteries.. 9780805074284. 0805074287. 428pag. 26x19x1.Ingles (English). |

 Practicing Resurrection

Practicing Resurrection. Gallagher, Nora. Alfred A. Knopf. Hardcover. Practicing Resurrection. Nora Gallagher´s story of a woman at a crossroads, discerning what to do and how to live after her brother´s death, is a continuation of the spiritual journey she chronicled in her acclaimed book, Things Seen and Unseen: A Year Lived in Faith. When her beloved brother, Kit, dies, Gallagher finds her own life no longer makes sense. Stretched between meetings, always ten minutes late, increasingly drained of surprise and humor, Gallagher realizes she´s lost more than her brother. She´s lost her own wild life, and a sense of the sacred in the world. Gallagher sets out to find a new way to spend herself. Practicing Resurrection describes the often unsettling, sometimes comic, and finally redemptive process of discovery as Gallagher discerns a possible call to the ministry, and explores her marriage, her work as a writer, and the natural world. It extends to the full meaning of life after death as Gallagher finds that experiences of resurrection are not believing six impossible things before breakfast. The surprising end portrays a vision of ministry redefined and a marriage honestly renewed. An account of the exploration of a vocation and of new life after loss, this memoir will inform and inspire anyone trying to discern the signs of a call to what might be a deeper purpose, and how to act on it.. 9780375405945. 0375405941. 217pag. 22x14x2.Ingles (English). |
 A Pagan Place

A Pagan Place. O´Brien, Edna. Mariner Books. Paperback. A Pagan Place. A Pagan Place is Edna O´Brien´s true novel of Ireland. Here she returns to that uniquely wonderful, terrible, peculiar place she once called home and writes not only of a life there - of the child becoming a woman - but of the Irish experience out of which that life arises - perhaps more pointedly than in any of her other works. This is the Ireland of country villages and barley fields, of druids in the woods, of unknown babies in the womb, of mischievous girls and Tans with guns. Ireland has marked Edna O´Brien´s life and work with unmistakable color and depth, and here she recreates her homeland with a singular grace and intensity.. 9780618126903. 0618126902. 206pag. 20x14x1.Ingles (English). |
